Humanitarian, actor, and Golden Globe® winner, Richard Gere is known for his
roles in films such as An Officer and a Gentleman, Days of Heaven, American Gigolo,
Pretty Woman, First Knight, Primal Fear and Chicago.

In his most recent role, Gere appeared alongside Susan Sarandon in Arbitrage,
directed by Nicolas Jarecki. Gere played a troubled hedge fund magnate desperate
to complete the sale of his trading. His performance in Arbitrage brought him Academy
Award, Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award® nominations.

In 2009, Gere starred in Fox Searchlight's Amelia, opposite Hilary Swank
and Ewan McGregor. In addition, he was seen in Lasse Hallstrom's Hatchi: A Dog's
Tail, a drama based on the true story of a college professor's bond with
the abandoned dog he takes into his home. In the same year, he starred in Brooklyn's
Finest alongside Don Cheadle and Ethan Hawke.

In 2007 he starred in Lasse Hallstrom's critically acclaimed film The Hoax
based on the true story of Clifford Irving (Gere) who sells his bogus biography
of Howard Hughes to a premiere publishing house in the early 1970s. That year, he
starred The Hunting Party, which tells the story of two journalists in
post-war Bosnia and in I'm Not There, a film that provides a view into
the life and songs of the legendary Bob Dylan as told through seven-characters.
The all-star cast includes Cate Blanchett, Christian Bale, and Heath Ledger.

In 2003, Gere won his first Golden Globe® award as Best Actor in a Musical or
Comedy for his portrayal of the infamous lawyer Larry Flynn in Chicago.

Bronx-born and raised Academy Award Nominee® Chazz Palminteri was a natural
choice to continue the Italianate torch in film. In the tradition set forth in the
1970s by such icons as Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, John Cazale and
Joe Pesci, Palminteri has brought grit, muscle and an evocative realism to the sidewalks
of his New York neighborhood.

After forging a career of playing tough-talkers, slick attorneys, unflinching hoods
and hard-nosed cops in such TV shows and films as Wiseguy, Matlock, Hill Street
Blues and Oscar, Palminteri broke out as an "overnight" star when
his 1988 one-man play A Bronx Tale was brought to the silver screen by
his film idol Robert De Niro in 1993. Still considered an unknown film commodity
at the time, Chazz refused to sell his stage property unless he was part of the
package as both actor and screenwriter. De Niro, who became his mentor, backed him
up all the way, and the rest is history.

Other important projects quickly fell his way. He received a well-deserved Oscar
nomination the following year for his portrayal of a Runyonesque hit man in Woody
Allen's hilarious jazz-era comedy Bullets Over Broadway. Other notable
work includes The Perez Family, The Usual Suspects, Diabolique, Faithful, Analyze
This, One Eyed King, Poolhall Junkies, Fix, Running Scared, Yonkers Joe,
and Mighty Fine. Occasionally he has lightened up and flexed his comedic
muscles in his recurring role as Shorty on Modern Family.

her fans all over the world. A multi-talented artist and one of music's most beloved
icons, she has racked up global record sales of over 50 million albums (and 14 Grammy

fans along for the ride.

brighter off the field. He created the Mr. October Foundation for Kids to enable students of under-represented
minorities to thrive in a world that is driven by science, technology and innovation.

inspires others through his on-field performances and contributions to his community".

Goose was one of the manifestations of the dominating closer, with wild facial hair
and a gruff demeanor to go along with his blistering fastball. He holds the New
York Yankees career record for ERA (2.14) and hits per nine innings (6.59). One
difference between Goose and more recent closers is that Goose often pitched as
many as three innings to finish a game, while modern closers typically pitch the
ninth inning only.

Goose lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and is active in the community promoting
and sponsoring youth sports. In 1995, the City of Colorado Springs dedicated the
Rich "Goose" Gossage Youth Sports Complex, which features five fields for youth

we do, but we can't forget to be human beings when we help others out." To that
end, Joe and his wife Kim founded Catch 25 Foundation which provides

individuals and families who are challenged with medical issues and economic strain.

and cures, Catch 25 assists many including those affected by Alzheimer's and Cancer.

and emotional support to those who may not otherwise receive it.
